Body Massage

Classic body massage, also known as general body massage, is one of the most effective methods for treating many ailments. It can help relieve pain, swelling, adhesions, normalize organ functions, restore tone, increase muscle performance, and strengthen the body's condition.

Classic body massage is based on the application of 4 main techniques: stroking, rubbing, vibrations, and kneading. The massage can be performed using additional products — creams, oils, stones, lotions, etc. During the procedure, the massage therapist massages the entire body.

General massage, back or stone therapy: what to choose

A body massage in Kyiv at Biotonika comes in several formats, and each solves its own task.

A general massage is chosen to strengthen overall health, relieve tension and restore tone. A back massage is traditionally prescribed for people with spinal conditions as a preventive or therapeutic treatment, and today also to relieve muscle strain; it suits men and women alike. Stone therapy is for deep relaxation: the warmth of the stones warms the muscle tissue.

The massage is done with cream, oil, lotion or stones — the therapist chooses them for the format and your goal. Body massage price per session — see the table above.

Massage and lymph: why the direction of movement matters

The lymphatic system is the body's cleansing system, and it moves in one direction only: "bottom-up", from the fingertips to the thoracic lymphatic duct. When lymph outflow is disturbed, it shows on the skin too: a rash may appear, and the complexion and general condition of the skin worsen.

Massage improves circulation and normalises the lymphatic system. Special forms of massage are especially effective for reducing swelling and activating lymph flow, in particular with essential oils of geranium, juniper and rosemary. The massage goes from the fingers towards the collarbone — where lymph enters the subclavian vein. More about the lymphatic system — in the article "Lymph — the living water of our body".

Massage, stress and muscle tension

Massage relieves pain and tension in muscles and joints, relaxes the body and so improves emotional balance. It is not only pleasant: finding ways to relax and reduce stress helps, for example, women with PMS — together with relaxation therapy and meditation, massage works well here.

A separate topic is tension in the shoulders and neck. The face's blood supply passes through the neck, so tight shoulder and neck muscles affect not only how you feel but also how you look: a "dowager's hump", a double chin and a dull complexion appear. A back massage that works on the neck, shoulders and shoulder-blade area is a good way to release this tension.

Body care between sessions

Massage gives the best result when the body also gets attention between sessions.

• Peeling at home. The oriental peeling glove from Dr.Belter Cosmetic helps to cleanse the body skin deeply, as in a Moroccan hammam. It removes dead skin without abrasive particles, stimulates circulation and prepares the skin for further care. Move from the legs upwards, towards the heart.
• Bath and dry brush. Massage is good to combine with a bath with essential oils; after it the body is massaged with a dry brush in the same direction — from the fingers to the collarbone.
• Movement and nutrition. Proper nutrition, regular training and massages together improve overall health and the work of internal organs. For body shaping, massage is often combined with pressotherapy, wraps and slimming massage; and a training and nutrition plan can be drawn up at a consultation with fitness trainer Stevan Lonchar.

Features of Classic Back Massage

Typically, classic back massage is prescribed to people with spinal diseases as a preventive or therapeutic procedure. However, today massage is used not only for general health improvement but also for relieving muscle tension.

This type of procedure is indicated for both men and women and involves the impact on the neck and shoulder muscles, shoulder blade area, lumbar region, and oblique muscles. The massage lasts no more than 30-40 minutes.

Classic Body Massage with Elements of Stone Therapy

Stone therapy is considered a subtype of classic massage and is performed using hot and cold stones.

A massage session using hot or cold stones can last from 40 minutes to an hour. This type of massage has a positive effect on muscle tone, helps relax the body, and can be used to treat nervous disorders.

Classic Body Massage with Stone Therapy Contributes to:

• Relieving tension;

• Improving blood circulation and warming muscle tissue;

• Enhancing metabolic processes;

• Reducing stress and anxiety;

• Alleviating pain from rheumatism;

• Restoring skin tone;

• Relieving pain in the back, neck, and limbs;

• Eliminating migraines.

What is the Effect of Classic Massage?

Classic body massage contributes to overall health improvement and serves as an effective preventive method against many diseases. The massage relieves pain and tension in the muscles and joints, relaxes the body, thereby improving emotional balance. At the same time, blood circulation improves and the lymphatic system functions normalize.

The procedure helps eliminate excess toxic substances, decay products, and slag. Significant changes occur in the skin: it becomes smoother, firmer, elasticity increases, and cellulite decreases.

Classic massage also corrects body shape and is often used in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures: pressotherapy, wraps, weight loss massage, etc.

To achieve the desired result, the massage is performed in a specific clear sequence and always begins with warming up the body.
